Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore the immunoregulatory effect of Huangqi Fuzhengtang on immunosuppressive mice.
METHODS:The immunosuppressive mouse model was established by using hydrocortisone. Huangqi Fuzhengtang and Yupingfeng San apozema were given to the mice intragastrically. The contents of hemolysin, IL-2, and INF-gamma in the mouse serum and the expression of CD3(+), CD4(+), and CD8(+) in the peripheral blood lymphocytes were measured.
RESULTS:Huangqi Fuzhengtang could obviously elevate the contents of hemolysin, IL-2, INF-gamma and the ratio of CD4(+) and CD8+, which was more effective than Yupingfeng San.
CONCLUSION:Huangqi Fuzhengtang could improve the immune function in the immunosuppressive mice.
